At the moment 6 GMT Fri July 17 I am thoroughly enjoyng BBC Radio 3 and the lovely oxbridge accents of the commentators, and thir wonderful musical choices...

...most of my time is ofline, so please be patient with
thanks that are sure to come for your favs and thoughtful, civilized comments.

Expect many fav and run without comments...bear with me...

Blocks are removed, if you are rude, there will be no reply and the block will
go on stay in. I pray you to be as civil as I try to be....

Explain......explain.....question, question.....rater than hysterically explode.
(I lived with that personaty nearly two decades. That was enough!!! I observe that those personalities have very few friends of more a year or two BTW.... that's my theory.....)

PS...... poseurs, lackeys, courtiers, flatterers, secretaries, servants, the duplicitous, dissemblers, jesters (except Lear's....), bubbleheads, fools, the highly frivolous, and those that are not ready to talk about about art, beauty, and AESTHETICS in detail.....and without AD HOMINEM arguments..... please go elsewhere if these scholarly standards are too hard to follow...

....but I welcome comments from good, relatively- unselfish, un-duplicitous hearts and minds...who just seek a place of peace, repose and meditation...

no one but me will use this id now..... If I suspect a correspondant is a proxy for another, arrividerci roma.....

I'm an unshamed chauvanist regarding English. If you aren't a native speaker, I pray that you consult one, before any hasty writing.... except in the case of a very few people who know who they are, where their english resembles modern poetry--- I believe in staying what you mean and meaning what you say. (to coin a phrase).
It would save millions of words and heartache if our DA community wrote thusly.

There are a few DAers I will not communciate with - perhaps for months or years. You know who you are. - "YKW" - If you want to change that situation, you should know what to do.

The net is a very strange place sometimes. I appear to have had a correspondance
with an imposter - a master poseur - someone claiming she was someone she wasn't for ~three years. Its no wonder my attempted notes to the real personage must have been tossed immediately! -- regarded as completely irrelevant! Stranger things have happened, but what an incredibly accomplished fiction! Took me in completely....Take great care when someone never reveals themself - or clams a profession 180 degrees from what they say on DA.

Isn't it surprising, how often, what the non-net addicts would regard as a "tempest in a teapot" - which is a frequent phenomena on the net - grows out of all proportion, to destroy further communication?
